Scrap it with a Song Challenge

I LOVE CHRISTMAS!!
The new challenge at Scrap it with a Song is to be inspired by your favorite Christmas song. I have so many favorites but when I was looking at these Christmas pictures the song "A Few of my Favorite Things" just popped in my head. One of the things I love most about Christmas is my ornaments and decorations!


The Elvis ornament has hung on our tree since I was a little girl! The Elf was given to me by my Grandma, Mom says I always played with it when I was at her house, so she let me take it home. For some reason son & fiancé think it's creepy and even made a video about him. lol The other ornaments are all newer. The penguins was bought for me by a co-worker in 2008, for my & Mikes first Christmas. The Linus is a Hallmark that recites the BEST part of a Charlie Brown Christmas. The Road Runner is another Hallmark Keepsake, that reminded me of Dad. The best part of Saturday morning was watching Bugs Bunny with my Dad. That is the best part of decorating, you aren't just hanging decorations you are hanging up memories!

Well, enough about my decorations.  lol I used My Digital Studio to create my page. You have until the end of the month to enter your creation at Scrap it with a Song. We love to see your creations.

Have a great day ~ Shelley

White Christmas - Scrap it with a Song

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas.....
Scrap it with a Song's challenge this week is White Christmas!



You can use the title or any lyrics from the song for your inspiration for your page. I used the lyrics "Children listen to hear sleigh bells in the snow"


I made my page with My Digital Studio from Stampin Up. I got the cute font FREE from 1001 Free Fonts. The pictures are of my wonderful nephews Anthony & Braydon. The first one was taken in 2004 and the other one is just from last year. I came across some older photos and can't believe how much they have grown up! I miss them being little. 


Remember you have until the end of the month to enter SIWAS challenge! We love to see your creations!

Scrap it With a Song

This week Scrap it with a Song is using an awesome rock poster for inspiration! And what better rock band than the one and only Grateful Dead!!!

There is so much inspiration you can take from this poster....

Here is what I created...

This is my handsome nephew, Tyler. I usually never get a good picture of him. He is usually making some terrible gesture or face at me. 
I used the orange, green & purple from the poster.  I tried to find similar letters to use.

Some Terrific News

I am so excited to say that I have been chosen for the Scrap It With a Song DT!
Their challenges are so much fun!
And I had a blast making this page.

 This is Olivia Wilde - who plays 13 on House. When I was reading the lyrics to this week's challenge I wanted to do something different. At first I told my fiance to give me a picture of his ex, and he just laughed at me, like usual. Then I was searching something else and there was Olivia! I knew that is what I had to do. So we looked through a bunch of "Top 50 Sexiest Women" and out of all of them he still choose 13. She is gorgeous! I tease him about his TV girlfriends. On each of our favorite shows we have a "favorite". Mine are Shamar Moore from Criminal Minds and Mark Harmon from NCIS. I've always loved him. I really love how this turned out!

I would like to thank SIWAS for allowing me to be on their DT! I am so excited!

I am entering my page in A Spoonful of Sugar - Flower Power, Anything Goes Challenge Blog, and Party Time Tuesdays - Anything Goes
Have a great day - Shelley
